There are a few options available for web hosting.
VT Hosting
We generally recommend VT Hosting for your web hosting needs. They support standard html/php/mysql websites, with the ability to give granular (page or folder specific) permissions to any VT PID.
More information can be found here: https://computing.vt.edu/content/quick-start-web-hosting-service
To request a VT Hosting page, create a ticket and provide the desired ece domain name (something.ece.vt.edu)
ECE Hosting=
We also provide the ability to host your individual or research group webpages on our web server, and support html/php/mysql websites.
If you have an ECE account, you will find a directory called "public_html" in your home directory. Any html or php pages you put in this directory will be available publicly on the internet as:
https://filebox.ece.vt.edu/~<eceAccount>
OR
https://computing.ece.vt.edu/~<eceAccount>
where <eceAccount> is your ECE account name.
- Note: this is the tilda character "~" followed by your account name without the "< >" characters.
If you require a unique domain name for your website instead, please submit a ticket. Domain names can be anything.ece.vt.edu
There are a few rule which govern what you can put in your website:
- You must comply with the VT Acceptable Use Policy
- You may not run a business of any kind. This means, you can not sell things using VT's provided web service.
- You may not put questionable / objectionable things up. No pornography.
- You may not violate copyrights. No file sharing through VT's provided web service.
